My Ride: 2008 535i 6MT
I've seen them at the dealer and drove one at the Komen event. Finally saw one on the street. Looked like a E92 coupe until I noticed the azz was a tad short. 
I drive my BMW all winter and hardly ever see another BMW on the road. Once the weather gets warm you can swat BMWs like flies. Most of them are Xi's too.

I think from far away they look a little like the E46 Couple in the back with the tails.
